    TIRAMISU! Must have! 100/10
    Lana S.

    My husband and I came for restaurant week! The menu sounded fantastic and we are excited to try it. I was nervous since the Yelp reviews said the service was awful and the food was a hit or miss. For first course we tried the homemade meatballs and mussels. Mussels were actually decent and there was a ton of meat and it tasted fresh! Meatballs were pretty decent. Not the best I've had but good. For entrees I got the seafood risotto. I was impressed by all the different seafood in the risotto! I felt the risotto was a bit overcooked and under seasoned. It was a huge portion though which was good! The next day I had the leftovers and it was much better with a little more salt and pepper. For dessert we both had tiramisu. Omg the best tiramisu I've had since we went to Italy! We heard it's homemade and every bite was delicious. I would go back just to eat that tiramisu. Overall service was good. They had good wine selection as well. Food was decent but wasn't wowing.

    Been a fixture here for many years and was recently renovated so I convinced my party to have dinner here around 5:45 on a Tuesday. Bar was busy with 2 parties but no one seated in the dining area. Hostess, when she had time to check the desk, almost looked surprised that we wanted a table. 15 minutes after seating we had to flag down staff and ask for service...no water, no bread, nothing until we asked to be served. Server apologized and took our order. As we waited for drinks I thought we should run across the street because it was going to just continue disappointing the table. There's a few reasons one should avoid slow restaurants...no sales=no tips=poor wait staff; and slow restaurants don't move enough food to keep high quality fresh foods...we should have left! Food was mediocre at best served on sparse oversized plates! Green beans were 2 shades (old and fresh) so I did not eat them, Gorgonzola sauce was a sad tiny lump of melted cheese, my two filet medallions were cooked on opposite ends of the done scale, potatoes were like eating home fries at Bob Evans, and our red wine could only be served in 3 red wine glasses...the others in white glasses because they did not have enough red wine glasses with an empty restaurant. Appetizer of tomato and mozzarella was the best part of everyone's meal. Renovation was a wasted effort, when service and food was poor. Owners should have saved the renovation cost and left the place boarded up...we would have been guaranteed a better experience!

    One of the best places to eat in Delaware. I love the food and the atmosphere. Owner/Chef Sergio is a great guy.

The food we had was fine. The mussles and frites were good, I would have thought the fries come with the sauce but they didn't. The risotto was slight malt under seasoned. The beet salad was really tasty! This resturant is always thorough when it comes to allergies. They have a hard time with the two server communication aspect. I've been here twice and both times they seemed one beat off from each other. Also for having two servers they don't check on you often enough. That could also be a communication/timing thing. (if you think someone else was there or not) we only ordered one drink because we didn't want to wait after we finished our food to order another. The drinks here are fantastic though. We dined for 2 hours and only was able to order one drink and apps. We probably would have enjoyed more but personally I didn't have to time sit any longer. I would give them one more try but 202 is a pain and this might not be worth the drive with so many comparable options of fine dining in Wilmington.

My friend and I arrived a bit early for our reservation, but were quickly greeted and offered a beverage menu. Their cocktail options are creative and constantly changing, often featuring some unique foam toppers. On this particular occasion, I started with the Strawberry Kiwi Spice Margarita, which included some cardamom to add depth and warmth to the fruity drink. I also ordered the Apricot Ginger Sour, a consistent favorite bourbon cocktail with a little zing from the lemon foam on top. Both drinks were excellent. For starters, we selected a few of the fresh oysters as well as a scallop special made with a lemon beurre blanc. The scallops were perfectly cooked, and I was grateful the dish came with sourdough to sop up every last drop of that delicious beurre blanc. My entree was where things went awry. I tend toward pescetarian options and selected the lone fish on the menu that night: skate wing. My first few bites were great, though slightly oversalted. However, eventually the mouthfeel evolved into a burning, ammonia taste, and I unfortunately wasn't able to finish the dish. My friend who also had the skate wing, however, did not have that experience (and I tried a bite of hers to confirm, too!). I know skate wing can be tricky to prepare and this is a known potential issue, but it was disappointing. Luckily, dessert was fabulous once again --- we chose the coconut creme brulee which was delightful. I'm sure I'll be back. Just no skate wing for me!

We were seated in a delightfully comfortable booth and started with two perfectly crafted cocktails. We split the winter green salad, which was the ideal size to share. The green apple provided a subtle snap, while the poppyseed vinaigrette had a hint of orange that paired beautifully with the walnuts. For mains, I had the lamb shoulder and my date had the trumpet mushrooms. While I'm not usually a mushroom eater, she absolutely loved her dish. My lamb was fall-off-the-bone tender, served over polenta that truly melted in my mouth. We both finished with the Lemon Panna Cotta--it was airy, fresh, and perfectly zesty.
